To keep up with global demand, ConAgra Foods, Inc.’s Lamb Weston business—handling the company’s frozen potato products—will invest more than $200 million into expanding operations at its Richland, WA facility to add a french fry processing line.
Construction on the line will begin immediately and is expected to be complete by the fall of 2017. Once finished, the fry line will add 128 full time positions and increase annual processing capacity by more than 300 million pounds.
